A Stale Joke,

Brother Dana, Of the New York S,m, is
acute, we all know. But he is also very
fend Of jest. Among his standing witt.
cisms is his unfailing reference to the late
President Hayes as "his fraudulency." By
this he means to intimate to the popular
understanding that Mr.. Hayes was not hon
estly chosen President of the United States.
Now, where does the joke come in9 Does
not Mr.. Dana know better than most men
that the electoral votes OF the states OF
Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, and
Florida were fairly given to Mr.. Hayes ?
Does he pretend not to know that the
majorities Of qualified voters In these states
are Republicans and nothing elseH To
what extent returning boards in Louisiana
and other southern states may have falsi-
fed official returns VIC do not undertake to
say, but 1t Isl pure drlvel or mendacity of
the intrepid sort to assert that Mr.. Tilden
himself suspected that he was entitled to
the electoral vote OF the states we have
mentioned.
In short, Mr.. Dana aud Mr.. Tilden both
knew that II there had been fair vote and
hh bOnSeb COuuJ W tnc bOutu tueTG WOulu
have been no need for an electoral commits.
sion to adjudge who was chosen president.
Dana knows that Tilden was not so chosen
and that Hayes was.
Why, then, keep up this stale and ridden.
lous jest about "his fraudulency." Hayes
was man Of average ability, Tilden had
unusual talents and astuteness, and there
fore he knew better than Hayes could have
known that "his fraudulency" could have
accurately described only Mr.. Tilden him
self had he been declared President.

A WAsHINGToN Republican organ declares
that at is sound policy, not only for the Re-
publican party, but for the whole country, that
the color line and race prejudice should be
abolished, and that men should divide poiti-
cally upon economic questions, each man con.
scientiously casting an honest ballot, uninilu-
enced by bribery, fraud, or force" This is a
very nice sentiment, but it is heresy from the
standpoint Of John Sherman, whs asserts that
every negro ought to be and naturally is Re-
publican. Let us have an agreement on this
point ttica (N " Observer.
Well, every negro might be Republican
and yet he should have the right to cast "an
honest ballot, uninauenced by bribery,

duced numbers OF men with the ability TO
champion Its cause, bpt none like Mr.. Par
nell, with that peculiar tact added to
ability which promises success.
Mr.. Parnell is hopeful, and he is right In
being so, because under his leadership the
Irish cause will win, though not now, and
that Mr.. Parnell evidently sees, as is shown
by what he says. lie expects the coercion
bill to pass, and his interview is to prepare
the minds Of the Irish people for that re.
suit, and to formulate the policy for them
to follow when 1t does pass.
And there can be no question but that
Mr.. Parnell has properly outlined the pol.
Icy that will be pursued by the administra-
tion after its passage, and also the proper
methods by which the policy should be
met. II 1t is met in that way, II the ad-
vice given by Panell to his own people in the
shape of an interview with the Tribune,
which was evidently intended as a mani.
festo to the Irish at home and request TO
those abroad for their aid in carrying out,
the day Of Ireland's deliverance is not far
distant The Irish alone can delay It; no
one else can.

As THE Republicans of Rhode Island
have succeeded in discipllnlng Mr.. Bray
ton, it will now be in order for the party to
get ready to elect member of Congress to
i'll the vacancy in the second congress
sional district. 1t is not probable, but 1t is
barely possible, that Republican member
of the House Of Representatives from the
second district OF Rhode Island might
have the honor of electing Republican
President Of the United States in 1880. In
the house now the states stand Nineteen
Republican, seventeen Democratic; New
Hampshire divided, and Rhode Island with
one Republican and one vacancy. 1t takes
the votes Of twenty states in the House to
elect, and II the second district elects
Republican member there will be twenty

MIR. Parnell.

In an interview in the New York Tribune,
which will be found in another column,
the great Irish leader has spoken very freely
as to the present situation of Irish affairs,
as to his hopes and fears, and what he be-
lieves to be the intention Of the tory leaders.
AS usual with all expressions of Mr.. Par
nell, while there can be no mistaking his
meaning, the words used being as forclble
as the language furnishes, they are as calm
as the surface Of an unruilled sea. Mr..
Parnell never gets excited or indulges in
yituperation or abuse, and hence comes his
superiority as a political leader in war
for liberty.
The cause Of Ireland is one that must
interest every man imbued with the Amer
ican idea OF government, because it is the
cause OF a people contending for the right
OF self.govemment. And 1t is cause OF
eopgratulation to the Irish that one OF their
people has come to the front as leader
who is so peculiarly fitted by temperament
for that important work. Ireland has pro-

AMERICAN wheat growers have cause to
feel cheerful over the market prospects.
The present available supply in the United
States is 179,000,00O bushels as against 1885,
100000 bushels last year at this time. or
this amount, 100, 100000 bushels will be
required for home consumption before next
harvest, leaving only 60,000,000 bushels to
export. For the year ending next August,
Great Britain and Ireland will be obliged to
import 150,0OO,000 bushels. France has a
short wheat crop, and will have to import
25, 900 to 100000 bushels during the
summer. The only influence that can keep
down prices is the fact of an unusually
large wheat crop in Australia. The general
tendency is toward higher prices, and no
fall is likely to occur during the next eight
months.

WHAT MIGHT BE EXPECTED
From Permitting Young Boys to Carry
Pistols,

1lbtOlB.
Willie Russell, the 14-yearold stepson Of
George +. Wheaton, Of New Orleans, was
shot through the heart and instantly killed
at II O'Clock yesterday morning at 400 Sixth
street northwest by companion named
Harry Adams, the grandson Of the Rev. Mr..
Phillips, Of New Jersey avenue southeast.
The boys at the time Of the shooting were
examining 20 caliber pistol, which Harry
held in his hand, and the weapon, which
was thought to be unloaded, accidentally
went of, the bullet passing through Willie's
heart. The injured boy was picked up by
Mrs. Rivers, and Willie ran to Gen. Wheaton
and told him Of the shooting. Gen. Wheaton
hurried home and sent for Drs. Chamber
lin and Marsteller, but the wounded boy
was dead before they reached the house.
Young Russell, before he died, stated that
the shooting was accidental. officer Breen
found Adams at his home, and he handed
the policeman the pistol that killed Willie.
A loaded pistol was also found in the
pocket of the deceased. Young Adams told
the police that he and Willie had arranged
to 60 out In the country to shoot. The boy
is held at the first precinct station, and to-
day Coroner Patterson will hold an inquest
